Self clean uses very high temperatures to clean the oven interior. The oven door will lock when using this feature. Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe up grease and soils from the oven. Remove all items from the oven other than enameled (dark colour) racks. Shiny or silver racks, the meat probe, and any cookware or other items should all be removed from the oven before initiating a self-clean cycle.
Close the door.
Press the Self Clean pad and a default self-clean time is displayed.
The clean time can be changed to any time between 3:00 and 5:00 hours by using the number pads to enter a different time and pressing Start. For heavily soiled ovens, the maximum 5 hour clean time is recommended. If you wish to use the default time, press the Start pad immediately after pressing the Self Clean pad.
The oven will turn off automatically when the self-clean cycle is complete. The door will stay locked until the oven has cooled down. After the oven has cooled down wipe any ash out of the oven.
GE recommends venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.
Soil on the front frame of the range and outside the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled steel-wool pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub. Rinse well with clean water and dry. All racks can be washed with warm, soapy water. Enameled (not shiny) racks can be left in the cavity during self clean. Racks may be more difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean. Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub onto the left and right edges.
